As the practice of public health changes, so the education of public
health practitioners needs to change. Since the 1988 Institute of
Medicine report on the Future of Public Health there has been a
consistent demand for focused efforts that address the infrastructure
and core services of public health. To address this need and fill the
gap in educational programs available to practitioners, the University
of North Carolina has developed a Certificate in Core Public Health
Concepts.
The Certificate in Core Public Health Concepts is 15-credit hour program of study. The content is the same as the core content taught in UNC's masters of public health programs. All courses have been specially designed and developed for delivery via the Internet. Students will be able to register, receive materials, interact with faculty, order books and successfully complete this program without traveling to the campus. A connection to the Internet is all that is required. We accept applications for the program year round and will admit students for spring and summer semesters as space is available, however the majority of Certificate students start the program in the fall term. Please note there are limited spaces available in the program and applications are reviewed and admission decisions made on a continual basis. Thus, applying early will provide a better opportunity for admission.
